Application programming interface (API) security is critical for retailers increasingly reliant on cloud technology. However, they also open potential gateways for cyber threats, making robust security protocols essential to protect sensitive data and maintain customer trust. The complexity of retail systems, which often involve numerous third-party integrations, can create multiple points of vulnerability.

Managed security services are growing across all regions. Companies are placing greater emphasis on cybersecurity and traditional MSPs have added these services to their offerings to meet this need.

The pace and complexity of AI technologies is increasing every day. In this rapidly changing environment, it’s critical for companies to adopt a rigorous approach to safely and responsibly incorporating AI into their products and processes. ‍ That’s why we’re excited to announce that the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (RMF) is now available in beta.

Conducting regular user access reviews is an effective way to make sure your organization is securing access to critical systems and third-party vendors. Frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO 27001 even require proof of regular access reviews to demonstrate compliance. ‍ Without automation, access reviews are tedious and time-consuming, requiring IT and security teams to manually record user access information in a spreadsheet and take countless screenshots of access permissions screens. ‍

Today we’re excited to share several milestones as we continue on our mission to secure the internet and protect consumer data. ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ And we’re just getting started. ‍ As we continue to reimagine GRC tools for the future of trust, we’ve built enterprise-ready features and rolled out additional Vanta AI capabilities along with support for the NIST AI Risk Management Framework. ‍ ‍

Over the past year, the social engineering tactics used for cyber attacks have evolved significantly as attackers manipulate the inherent trust, biases, and vulnerabilities of individual human behavior to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information or systems.
